Step-by-step
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- Start by combining the coconut milk and 1/4 cup maple syrup in a small saucepan on the stovetop over medium heat. This will need to cook for almost the duration of the brownie prep and bake time. Whisk it occasionally to prevent burning
- While your caramel sauce begins to cook, combine the eggs, vanilla, cocoa powder, maple syrup, cassava flour, and coconut sugar in a bowl
- Whisk them thoroughly to break up any lumps
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted chocolate chips and melted ghee, stirring to combine well
- Add in the melted mixture into the rest of the brownie mix and then spoon it into a greased baking pan (Mine measured 10x6)
- Now check on your caramel drizzle again. It typically takes around 20 minutes to simmer and thicken. Once it has thickened to almost a honey consistency, set it aside to cool
- Bake the brownies for around 30 minutes or until the center is baked through. You can test by inserting a toothpick to see if it comes out clean
- Once baked through, remove from the oven and set aside. Sprinkle the pecan pieces and additional 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and then drizzle your caramel sauce over the top. You can either use a spoon or you can spoon it into a zip top plastic bag and trim off a corner so you can pipe it onto your brownies

Pro Tip: For an even richer caramel flavor, let the caramel sauce cool completely before drizzling it over the brownies. This allows the flavors to deepen and meld together.
